    We have implemented the functionality described in this ticket. It will be included in our next update(s).

    Please check back and leave a comment to this response to let us know whether or not this solution addresses your concerns.

    Additional information:

    With VCL 13.1, we introduced a new component, TdxRibbonRadialMenu, which allows you to display a radial menu similar to the one found in Microsoft Office OneNote 2013. This component is a great addition to our Ribbon implementation in general, and is another step in making your application touch-friendly (see Enhance the touch experience with DevExpress VCL controls for details). In addition to the standard design-time menu item editor, you can easily populate the radial menu with items from your existing popup menus using the Assign ItemLinks From item in the component's context menu.
    Run the RibbonNotepadDemo shipped with the ExpressBars Suite to see the new radial menu component in action. In the demo, the radial menu is used as a context menu. Use the Context Menu Style option group located on the Appearance Ribbon tab to switch between the radial menu and Mini Toolbar.

        UPD: VCL 13.1.3 introduces a new display mode which helps you mimic the menu behavior found in Microsoft Office OneNote 2013 (see TdxRibbonRadialMenu - Add the collapsible display mode for details).
